Mr. Speaker, I know that the critic for the Bloc Quebecois did not have a chance to read the document because he was in too much of a hurry to ask his questions. However, if he were to look on page 53, he would find a very clear explanation of some of the special factors which combined to dampen budgetary revenues this year. When we exclude these factors from our calculation, it becomes very clear that we can forecast a real increase of 3 per. cent or a nominal increase of 4
per cent. This is in line with the forecasts of the vast majority of the country's economists.
